About Adrian Butler MD
Adrian Butler, MD, is a board certified orthopedic and hand surgeon at the UT Health East Texas Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute in Tyler.

Dr. Butler also provides fracture care, joint replacement, ligament repair/reconstruction and care of complex injuries involving the hand and arm.
“My involvement into healthcare was a natural progression,” he said. “Growing up, I was always fascinated by science. I tried to learn as much as I could and always enjoyed working with my hands. When I injured my shoulder in middle school was when I first learned about orthopedic surgery. My high school was not far from the Indiana Hand Center, and I was fortunate enough as a high school student to spend some time there. Reflecting on this time, I believe this is where my affinity for hand surgery began.”
When not treating patients, he enjoys cycling, fishing, boating, golf, traveling and spending time with his family and dogs.
Dr. Butler is employed as a clinical faculty physician at The University of Texas at Tyler Health Science Center under the UT Tyler School of Medicine.
